Indulge in the creamy, rich layers of the Triple Chocolate Cheesecake, a decadent treat for chocolate lovers with three types of chocolate combined in a buttery cookie crust.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups (150g) chocolate cookie crumbs (such as Oreos)
- 6 tbsp (85g) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 16 oz (450g) cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream
- 3 large eggs
- 4 oz (115g) dark chocolate, melted
- 4 oz (115g) milk chocolate, melted
- 4 oz (115g) white chocolate, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream (for ganache)
- 4 oz (115g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- Mix chocolate cookie crumbs, melted butter, and sugar together. Press this mixture into the bottom of the pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes and allow to cool.
- In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth.
- Add the heavy cream, then mix in the eggs one at a time.
- Split the filling into three portions; add melted dark chocolate to one, milk chocolate to another, and white chocolate to the last. Add the vanilla extract and mix until smooth.
- Pour the dark chocolate filling into the crust first. Then, layer the milk chocolate filling on top and swirl for a pretty effect.
- Top with the white chocolate filling and swirl again.
- Place the springform pan in a larger baking dish and fill it with hot water. Bake for 55-65 minutes or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
- Cool in the oven with the door slightly open for 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
- Heat the heavy cream until simmering. Pour it over the chocolate chips and stir until smooth.
- Allow it to cool slightly, then pour it over the chilled cheesecake.
- Drizzle ganache over the cheesecake and garnish as desired. Enjoy every bite!
